Vauxhall Astra - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra K - Years 2015-2022
Part: Key
Operation: How do you replace the battery of the Opel Astra remote control?

Replacing the battery of the Opel Astra remote control is done by levering in the groove located at the bottom of the remote control: in this way, it will be possible to detach the plastic cover of the back of the device, so that access to the underlying battery is obtained. This can now be removed from its seat, so that the new replacement piece can be inserted; after the new battery has been inserted, the remote control can be closed again, in order to verify that it works correctly again.

Handbrake adjustment on Ford Ecosport

First remove the plastic profile at the base of the gear lever. To do this, slightly widen the side edges and carefully lift it to release it. There is no need to remove it completely, just move it forward to avoid bother. Now remove the plastic center console around the handbrake by first working from the rear to release it and lifting it until the brake lever passes. Also in this case it is not necessary to remove it completely but, paying attention to the connected cables, it can be stowed in front of the passenger seat. At this point we notice that at the base of the handbrake lever, on the front, we find a nut. By acting on it, with a 10 wrench, we can adjust the brake force, increasing it by turning the nut clockwise, or decreasing it by turning it counterclockwise. Once adjusted, the center console can be repositioned first, pressing lightly to engage it, and then the profile of the gearbox base.
